On tap at Pips Meadery, pours a deep dark mahogany with a tiny pinkish brown head. Aroma is dominated by a cohesive yet bombastic mix of vermouth and mint, with rich honey nectar and pithy blackberries in back. Flavour is very rich, with intense blackberry jam, aggressive mint, and vermouth. Damn, on paper, I should hate this, but this is impeccable. Mint and vermouth in a blackberry mead? Yep, incredible.

On tap at Pips. Pours black with tan foamy ring. Honey, some dried fruit, blackberries, minty, herbal, tart. Very interesting, loved the mint twist.
